Virginia Child Care Mapping Project

Child Care Aware of Virginia’s child care mapping project allows you to see the various types of child care programs throughout Virginia. Each map can be viewed from a statewide perspective, or you can zoom in to see counties, communities or neighborhoods. A legend is available for each map to describe the type of child care shown (licensed centers, license-exempt care, etc.). Each map is overlaid with child poverty data.

Child Care Supply Data by Locality

Locality fact sheets provide a two-page overview regarding the supply of child care and early care in Virginia localities. Included: number of child care programs by regulation type, program type, licensed capacity, and self-reported cost of care.
